To meet the need for a lightweight, safe and affordable knife, the Bantams were developed. Quality and durability were the main goals, as was reliability. The lockback mechanism adds the necessary safety features, and the various camo patterns give them added use in the field, or simply look good for daily carry. Originally produced in China, Buck brought the Bantams to their Post Falls facility for USA production in 2009. Also offered in various camo patterns, the Bantam has been a best seller from the beginning.

Buck's sleek, new series of lightweight mid-lock backs features a host of convenient, easy to use enhancements. From the tip of the blade, through the wide sloping edge, these knives are ready to meet the ever expanding everyday demands. The lightweight ETP handle offers a firm, well-balanced grip. Available in Mossy Oak Break-Up, Mossy Oak Blaze and Mossy Oak Blaze Pink camo there is a color for everyone. Thumb studs on both sides of the blade provide easy, one hand opening, while the mid-lock back location makes for a smooth closing. These knives come in multiple sizes to meet any personality, and all are priced to meet every wallet size.

I use my knives every day at work, cutting cardboard, packaging, plasticwrap etc.The size of this knife is very good for that use, and it doesnt scare the customers like it probably would if I wacked open a bigass tactical folder.Very lightweight.When i first got it I had a hard time opening it fast with one hand like my other knives, it was very thight. Now after some months use it flicks open very nicely, just hoping that it wont loosen up more. Its not adjustable so i guess it will get more blade play over time.For 16 bucks? Lots of knife! Bang for the buck!
